Cursor adds Annotate to its Design mode, letting users give agents visual prompts, according to a post from Cursor's X account on October 27, 2026.

Per that post, users can edit elements, draw on the page, and review designs at different screen sizes.

A second X post from Testing Catalog, dated the same day, says annotations are now available in Design mode and quotes Cursor describing it as a way to direct agents by leaving notes on a running app.
